First consider who you call "friend". Are those people willing to help you out if you are down, or are those people just there for the fun time when you are socializing? In general, people who are truly your friends and value you should be very open to the idea of you coming to them for help and asking how you can get ahead in your own life. A lot of success is just knowing how to play the game and which moves to make, as well as people connections. Most of the rich people that I know are there because someone else essentially gave them the path to take, and they just made the right steps. If they are not willing to do this, then you honestly will probably be better off finding a new circle of friends.
